    @corbettbarr

    My BuddyPress installation sends email notifications for private messages sent via BuddyPress, but it does not send email notifications for @mentions or comments.

    I found a similar issue in the BuddyPress forums here, but it was never answered:

    http://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/activity-reply-friend-request-email-notifications-are-not-working/

    Here are some details about my installation.

    This is a “private” install where only registered members have access to the site.

    1. Which version of WordPress are you running?
    latest version of wp – 3.3.2

    2. Did you install WordPress as a directory or subdomain install?
    subdirectory of a subdomain

    3. If a directory install, is it in root or in a subdirectory?

    4. Did you upgrade from a previous version of WordPress? If so, from which version?
    have upgraded regularly for the past year

    5. Was WordPress functioning properly before installing/upgrading BuddyPress (BP)? e.g. permalinks, creating a new post, commenting.
    Yes, other WordPress email notices are sent (registration + lost passwords + bbpress notifications)

    7. Did you upgraded from a previous version of BP? If so, from which version?

    8. Do you have any plugins other than BuddyPress installed and activated? If so, which ones?
    I have deactivated all other plugins and the issue still exists.

    9. Are you using the standard BuddyPress themes or customized themes?
    Customized based on a WooThemes

    10. Have you modified the core files in any way?
    No.

    11. Do you have any custom functions in bp-custom.php?
    Yes, just to hide the admin bar

    12. If running bbPress, which version? Or did your BuddyPress install come with a copy of bbPress built-in?
    Yes, running 2.0.2

    13. Please provide a list of any errors in your server’s log files.
    No errors.

    14. Which company provides your hosting?

    Do you know for certain that the emails aren’t being *sent*, or are they not bring received?

    I’ve looked in /var/log/maillog (on linux) and don’t see evidence that the messages have been sent.

    Should I look somewhere else?

    Hey @djpaul any updates on this? Other ideas or places to look for the cause?

    Anyone else have ideas on this email issue? The messages are not being sent by BuddyPress as far as I can tell. I’ve searched the maillog file and nothing shows up in the WHM mail delivery reports.

    Why is BuddyPress not sending the @mention and comment notifications?
